Admissions and Financial Aid

Admission Requirements

Candidates may apply for admission to the Public Health and Development Sciences Program on a semester basis. The Program welcomes students from arts, social sciences, and science backgrounds. Acceptance is based on the SAT Reasoning Test results, secondary school grades, and rank. Students should also meet the necessary requirements of the University for admissions. All students are assessed for English language proficiency; this may affect the number of credits needed to complete their degree. Applicants are encouraged to visit the Program in person and discuss their needs with the Program Director.​

​Finan​cial AidStudents applying to the PD Program are eligible for scholarships of 30% of tuition fees. In addition, students are also eligible for financial aid of up to an additional 20% of tuition, depending on need and maintaining an appropriate academic standing. Additional financial s​upport is available through student employment, and, in cases of outstanding academic achievement, merit scholarships.
